ADHD-supportive notepad. A distraction-reduced space for writing quick thoughts. I have two huge monitors covered with dozens of windows and hundreds of tabs. Notepad text goes to the edges of its window and is black on white, way too visually noisy, so I open a sticky behind it and give myself an inch of buffer. But then I need to look at something else and the layers get upended.
I’m a non-technical manager of a development team and couldn’t conscionably ask one of my devs to do it, so I downloaded Delphi (we are very old school) and got to work with ChatGPT. It’s been fussier than I ever imagined, but now I’ve got the minimal functions, autosave, buffer zones and color options I’ve been dreaming of, plus new insight into what my devs go through when I ask “how hard can it be to just…” Mopping up some issues with resizing. I’ll post a free version soon.
